Api risk matrices save draft partial update

Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?

Annotations already disclose that this is a non-readonly, non-idempotent, non-destructive write. The description adds useful context that metadata remains draft-scoped until publish, which is behavior beyond the annotations, but it does not explain what happens to existing draft data or whether prior draft state is overwritten.

Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.

Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?

The description is two short sentences with the core action front-loaded and no wasted text. The compactness is appropriate for a simple partial-update endpoint, though the jargon slightly reduces readability.

Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.

Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?

For a simple one-parameter draft-save operation with annotations covering safety traits, the description provides the key draft-scoping fact. However, it omits prerequisites such as whether editing must already be started, what 'WIP' covers, and how this relates to publish/discard operations, so meaningful gaps remain.

Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.

Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?

There is one required 'id' parameter, and schema description coverage is 0%, so the schema provides only the type. The description does not explain what the id refers to, whether it is a risk matrix draft id, or how it relates to the editing draft, leaving the sole parameter semantically under-specified.

Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.

Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?

The description says it updates an 'editing_draft' with current work-in-progress, which implies a draft-saving action, but it never names the risk matrix resource explicitly. It is more concrete than a tautology but relies on internal jargon and does not clearly distinguish this from publish/discard/start-editing siblings.

Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.

Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?

The phrase 'until publish' hints at the draft workflow, but there is no explicit guidance on when to use this instead of publish_draft, discard_draft, or start_editing. An agent must infer the intended workflow from sibling names and the vague draft-scoped note.

Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
